OutDavid Montgomery isn't expected to play — the read below describes past games only.

Montgomery is positioned to serve as Houston's lead running back after arriving from Detroit via trade this offseason, and Houston appears prepared to use him in a workhorse role. Barrett praised Montgomery's physical running style, blocking ability and leadership, while emphasizing the veteran's mentality and consistency. With an upgraded offensive line and little proven competition beyond Woody Marks, Montgomery looks poised for a substantial workload, and his skill set could allow the Texans to find greater success in the red zone and in play action, per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2.

The read

Over his last 10 games, David Montgomery has gone over 0.5 RUSH TD 4 of 10 decided times (40%) — versus 47% across the full season. CHI has been a middling matchup for running backs this season, allowing the 19th-most RUSH TD of 32 teams (0.3 per game). His game-to-game RUSH TD have been highly variable (σ ≈ 0.6), so short streaks can mislead. These are descriptive stats about past games, not predictions or betting advice.

Hit rate excludes pushes from the denominator. Confidence uses a 95% Wilson interval — a high recent rate on few games still reads as low confidence. Season over rate at this line: 47%.
